The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has decided not to extend the Conflict Zone Information Bulletins (CZIB) for Israel and Iran, citing ceasefire agreements and a reduction in regional tensions. The CZIBs expired on January 31, and EASA has instead issued dedicated Information Notes (IN) to highlight remaining risks in these airspaces.
However, EASA extended the CZIB for Lebanon until March 31, 2025. This bulletin applies to all EASA-based and third-country operators, as Lebanon has not shown "full capability to address existing airspace risks by implementing an efficient and proactive approach to the airspace deconfliction."
For Israel, Iran, and surrounding areas within a 100 nautical mile radius, airlines are advised to exercise caution and consult all available aeronautical publications. EASA also extended the IN for the Southern Red Sea. “The advisory for Iran recommends also to consider daylight operations only. The Information Notes are distributed to relevant parties on a need-to-know basis to provide more operational background and recommendations.”
